thanks for the good comments, bodywork is starting to let it down now, dosent look as mint as it used to in the first pics :-( my other projects are using up all the money at the mo so paint job on this wont be sorted for quite a while yet.. it is a daily driver tho :-p

still, sayin that, more power is on its way in the form of new cam and vernier pulley (c/o PPP), green injectors, charger rebuild and remap (c/o PSD) which I'm guessing should see it over 180bhp 8-)

very nice, thats a very blue strut brace u have there lol

sweet, update when the work is done
